Abstract

The battery pack houses a protection circuit (3) along with a rechargeable cell (2) in a case (1). The protection circuit is provided with switching devices (7) to control current flow in the rechargeable cell, and a control circuit to control the switching devices. The protection circuit is molded in a single package with insulating material to make a one-package unit. The one-package unit is retained in a holding space in an insulating holder (6). The one-package unit, insulating holder, and rechargeable cell are held in the case.
